We all have illusions. We can hardly live without
them. Most of the time they are harmless thoughts

they want and then dreams of having it. Whenever
someone holds an opinion based on what they think
is true, or in some cases what should be true,

illusion. Illusions sometimes help people cope
with painful situations, but in the end, illusions
